Porn star Stormy Daniels says she had an affair with Trump a year after he married Melania - here's a timeline of the president's many marriages and rumored affairs

"He even tried to get Playboy to do a spread called 'The Girls of Trump,' wooing his most shapely staffers, including a former beauty queen secretary, into posing for the magazine with a sliding scale of offers on everything from full nude to breast to 'wet-lip' shots," Wayne Barrett wrote in his 1991 book "Trump, The Greatest Show on Earth: The Deals, The Downfall, The Reinvention."

Barrett continued: "It was all part of the rakish ethos of phony glamour that he consciously fostered, even to the extent of concealing from public view a very efficient secretary with a pimplish facial condition."

Jessica Leeds told The New York Times in 2016 that Trump "grabbed her breasts and tried to put his hand up her skirt" when the pair were seated next to each other on a flight in the early 1980s, when Trump would have been married to Ivana.

"He was like an octopus," Leeds told The Times. "His hands were everywhere."

Trump denied Leeds' claims, as well as other allegations of sexual assault.

"The children are all wrecks," Ivana told gossip columnist Liz Smith. "Ivanka now comes home from school crying, 'Mommy, does it mean I’m not going to be Ivanka Trump anymore?' Little Eric asks me, 'Is it true you are going away and not coming back?'"

The tape was published by The Washington Post just before the 2016 presidential election, at which time Trump called his commentary "locker room banter."

The alleged affair reentered the spotlight earlier in 2018 with the news that Trump's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, had facilitated a $130,000 payment to Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, shortly before the 2016 election.

On Monday evening, Daniels announced that a "hush agreement" between herself and Trump is invalid, because Trump didn't sign the agreement. On Tuesday, Daniels sued Trump over the agreement. Her lawyer said on the "Today" show that Daniels and Trump did have an affair in 2006.

In February, The New Yorker published an investigation into McDougal's alleged affair, which reportedly continued for months.

American Media, a media company that owns the National Enquirer and has close ties to Trump, bought the exclusive rights to McDougal's story, The Wall Street Journal reported in 2016. But, the company did not run any pieces on the story — something that The New Yorker notes is a tactic commonly used by media outlets to kill a story.

The White House claimed the incidents discussed in the document did not happen, with a spokesperson telling The New Yorker, "The President says he never had a relationship with McDougal."

People's Natasha Stoynoff alleged in 2016 that Trump pushed her against a wall and "shoved" his tongue "down her throat" when she went to Mar-a-Lago to interview him and the very-pregnant Melania in December 2005.

Miss USA and Miss Universe contestants said that Trump harassed and assaulted them in 2006, inspecting them before the pageants and grabbing them without consent.

Summer Zervos, a former contestant on "The Apprentice," said that Trump "very aggressively" kissed her, groped her breasts, and began "thrusting" his genitals at her in a 2007 meeting at The Beverly Hills Hotel.

Trump has denied all of these allegations.

In February, the first lady eschewed the traditional walk with the president across the White House's South Lawn to Marine One after The New Yorker published its report on the McDougal affair.

The first lady also largely disappeared from public engagements with her husband after the Wall Street Journal reported in January that Trump's lawyer organized the transfer of $130,000 into Stormy Daniels' account.
